What makes you sad? Why? Sad movies make me saddest, even though have the movies I watch aren't even real. When I was little, Little Babe made me cry for the little piggy, and I can't even remember the movie, I just remember being very very sad, and crying during all the movies and its sequels. Artificial Intelligence made me cry so so much, I was so touched by the robot's wanting to be human. In the end, when his artificial mother had already died, but he stayed with her body, even though she was lifeless. He merely closed his eyes, and stayed there presumably until the end of time, all because he had become so human, he only wanted someone to love. Just thinking if it makes me want to cry. I'm gonna have to stop this discussion, because going back to everything that makes me cry makes me want to cry again!!=(

I feel sad when I have been around people often or when I get out alot and I start noticing how many cruel people there are in the world and how rare good kind people are. That is what usually breaks my heart. I also get sad when I think of my fiance passing away as she is 20 years older than me and it pains me to think about it.

Sometimes,being alone can make me sad. When i am all alone listening to my favorite musics and remembering some events/moments in my life associated with the music that i heard,it makes me sad and even made me cry. There are moments in our life that we get so sentimental and light hearted. Even reminiscin with our past,with our loved ones that we lost,the memories keep haunting us,and make us cry. The missing for someone we love so dearly,but is living far from us,also made us sad. So much memories to be remembered and songs,movies and even places that bring back old memories. Sadness is a normal feeling. Happy mylotting...

The thing that makes me sad most is when someone in the family got sick especially my son because you couldn't tell the pain they experienced and how long does it takes them to be healthy again, sometimes you wish you are the one who got sick so that you can tell your family everything will be just fine and stop being sad. I feel sad when my father had a heart attack and my father in law got stroke, it's really a variety of emotions.

Hello! In nowadays two things make me sad. First is very sad problem in the world I can not cry about this problem. The problem is war in this world. It is very sad when terrorists kill innocent people. Why in this world the war is to necessary? I can not think about the war and consequences. And second thing is love I do not believe for truth love at his moment. In all movies we can see happy endings, but that all is bulshit. I have a girlfriend, but I do not believe for truth love. Many people in this world is users.

Sad movies, sad songs, and sad books, they all tear me up. There are some specific episodes of TV shows that I can't watch because they get me so down. Edward Scissorhands was one movie that I really loved but it was so depressing, Johnny Depp was amazing, but the way they discriminate against him the whole time was just so awful! And I also get really low when something bad happens to people that I care about, because in my opinion, they're good people and they should have only good things happen to them. Plus my mom, when she gets sick, and when my dad and grandmom have some trouble, it just bums me out completely. :(

Hi ShadowofHope, during my childhood I would feel sad whenever seeing my mom or day feeling unwell. I had seen people around falling into sick and had to admit to hospital for quite a long time. I worried that and of course didn't want this to happen on any of them. I wanted my parents always to be healthy and fit. My three siblings as well as I always tried to help them in whatever which we could give our little assistance I hope they had more time to have exercise as well as to have proper rest. My parent would worry and get sad as well if we don't have good health and happy spirit. Seeing disasters happen here and there would make me sad as well, like the spilling of oil happens recently and the severe earthquakes happen in different places. It's really sad to see many unfortunate people suffering losing their loved ones, houses,..... Have a nice day

the question is just the opposite of what makes you happy isn't it. according to me the memories of the past makes me sad and nostalgic and i will forget it soon though. But the thing which makes me sad in most of the time is about myself. I will worry about myself how to settle in my life soon and how to achieve things great. Am trying hard in my life to achieve my goal and to turn my sadness into happiness.
